Custom isn't complicated: in fact over 70% of our clients travel to Asia on a Custom Journey. And here's the beauty, a custom trip to Myanmar departs on dates of your choosing and you travel only in the company of loved ones to destinations entirely up to you. You determine the trip length and focus. The type of Myanmar lodging is up to you, as are included meals. All trips are accompanied by expert private local guides and drivers, all for about the price of a group departure (or if you choose, the sky is of course the limit).

What's Included on a Custom Journey

Personalized Trip Planning

Tell us your vision. We'll pull together a dazzling, totally
personalized itinerary that
reflects all of your interests. We charge no upfront fees for this
outstanding service.

Private Local Guides & Drivers

You will have your own private, local guide in each destination.
Our guides are the
best in the region–educated, friendly individuals who offer
insights you can only get
from a local. Your own private driver is also included for all
tours and transfers.

Beyond-the-Ordinary Activities

We go beyond just preparing a day-by-day itinerary with
watertight logistics. Our personal
connections and in-depth knowledge mean the possibilities are
endless and the
experiences extraordinary. Is avant-garde art your passion? We can
get you inside an
artists' colony in Beijing, with a contemporary-art museum curator
as your guide. Do
you dream of seeing tigers in the wild? We can arrange for a
private elephant-back safari
in search of the Bengal tiger with a biologist from the World
Wildlife Fund in India.

Accommodations & Cuisine

Boutique and often very luxurious accommodations are included in
a Custom Journey.
From exquisite, restored maharajahs' palaces in India to a nomadic
ger camp in Mongolia,
we emphasize authentic local style–it's as much a door into a
culture as any
visit to a museum. Our dining picks likewise reflect our
true-to-the-land obsession and
appreciation of all things excellent.
